    a neon sign that reads seoul taco
    Rochelle M.

    During an afternoon in Wicker Park, my kids chose to stop here for lunch. We were immediately greeted by a super friendly guy behind the counter. He took some time to explain their menu and made a few suggestions. We ordered Bulgogi Quesadillas and the Taco sampler. He didn't hesitate to accommodate all our requested changes. So good!! Well-prepared and incredibly flavorful. Generous portions. The place is small, but nicely set-up and clean. We'll be back!

    Bulgogi tacos, kimchi coleslaw, chips and cheese

    I love the food. The chips and cheese were delicious. The texture of the chips were perfect. The Bulgogi tacos were flavorful. Would definitely eat here again. I also ordered the kimchi coleslaw that I really enjoyed

    Seoul Taco serves quick, convenient, delicious Korean-fusion food. They have several locations and this one (1422 N Milwaukee) recently opened in the Wicker Park neighborhood. Their set-up is unique: they smartly factored in outdoor seating in their space. When you enter the restaurant, you'll pass through these benches/tables so that folks who are covid-conscious, or those who just prefer eating outdoors, can enjoy a meal outside. Seoul Taco is fast casual and ordering is easy. The first time I came, it was for lunch and I had the steak tacos (3 x $10). I was raving about this to my friends and we ended up ordering this the next day! Lunch for one: Steak Tacos (3 tacos per order) Family-style dinner for three: Korean Cheesy Corn Elote Quesadilla Munch Wrap Seoulpreme Kimchi Fried Rice (side) Waffle Fries (side, sweet potato) They have agua frescas on their menu, burritos, gogi bowls, and gogi fries. The next time I come back, I think I'll try either their burrito or gogi bowl... or heck, both! It's nice to have another Asian-fusion option in the neighborhood, right on the bustling Milwaukee Ave. I personally like to get some milk tea or fresh fruit tea across the street (Elitea) to go with a Seoul Taco meal. Putting this out there, somewhat selfishly, to manifest: a partnership between the two businesses that if you show your receipt to the other business, you get a percentage off your order :) A solid four stars. I had Seoul Taco twice in one week without any hesitation. If that's any indication that you're going to like this place, you should make a trip to Seoul Taco (or get it delivered), stat!

    Happy to have a Seoul Taco in Wicker Park! This place is flavorful and a good value. Service was fast, however the man taking the order was pretty hard to hear and seemed unenthusiastic about being there. Maybe it was just an off day though! The burrito was HUGE and the $2 up charge for bulgogi steak was totally worth it. My fiancé got the Gogi bowl and that was good too but we preferred the burrito. A side of sweet potato fries were a tasty addition to the meal. The decor in this location is pretty cool too and we'll be back.

    Overall, we enjoyed the food here! It's right next door so super convenient. These aren't traditional street tacos, they have an Asian flair so be prepared for that. Especially with the chicken, not taco-esque at all. I got the 3 taco trio to try all the flavors. I liked the spicy pork and steak best, the chicken was alright. We also got the sweet potato fries which were solid, just needed a little salt. The disappointment came with the elite quesadilla. We paid extra to add chicken but I didn't realize until halfway through our meal when I tried it that there wasn't any chicken in it and overall it was just like corn and sauce in a tortilla. Def wouldn't get that again. But may stop back for the two tacos I enjoyed.

    Menu - prices on this are actually lower by $1 so guessing they raised their prices recently (eggs quickly approaching gold status)

    Really mouthwateringly delicious Korean Mexican fusion here. This is my second or third time having Seoul Taco and I haven't been disappointed once. Pretty sure every time I've ordered the Gogi bowl with Bulgogi steak. It's a banger every single time - so delicious and also a pretty healthy meal, but tasty enough to be considered a cheat meal. The burritos are also very good and similar to chipotle style - large, and filled with all the same ingredients you would find in the bowl. The sweet potato fries are out of this world and come with a great chipotle ranch style, dipping sauce. Pair all this with some old fashion speaker rumbling hip-hop and you got Seoul Taco. This place is a vibe. Thanks for having us.

    Cute small outdoor and indoor!

    This place just opened a location in wicker park and is amazing! Staff and service was great and fairly quick. The Crunchwrap was soooo good. Had a good amount of kimchi so it had some spice to it and the bulgogi/steak was so yummy and there was a good amount. The bowl was good too! I got spicy pork (wasn't spicy) but very good and came with a ton of toppings. Will be a regular for sure. I want to try the elote quesadilla!!

    Steak tacos are top notch! I love that they use corn tortillas! The ambiance isn't stellar, but I still go back for take out all the time. Great service.

    Gogi Bowl
    Audrey L.

    Love this place! So glad we have now have one in Wicker Park. If you're looking for a quick, tasty, and filling meal this is a great spot. I got the gogi bowl and it was delicious! The meat was so flavorful and I felt like the whole bowl was pretty balanced with the rice, veggies, and gochujang. My bf got the nachos and those were super tasty too - the queso goes so well with all the other toppings. I love the creativity of fusion food at Seoul Taco, and everything is always super delicious. Great spot for a quick and tasty meal!!

    Beef tacos and kimchi fried rice.
    Matt K.

    What's the hype about? It was crappy food made by people who have no idea what they're doing. I'm Korean, so I was excited to try this place. Had kimchi fried rice and beef tacos. Wtf. They mixed gochujang with rice and put kimchi on top. Are you serious? Lol that's not kimchi fried rice! Beef tacos? Lol. They put marinated beef in a soft taco tortilla, some spring mixed greens, and some sauce. That's it? Omg. It was horrible. This place is not worth your time and money. Find some place else that actually does good Korean fusion food. Never again.

    This was my first time coming to the wicker park location- I usually head to the one downtown. The service was very unwelcoming which made me feel uncomfortable, this is a trend I've noticed throughout this chain. Makes me wonder if the employees really enjoy working here. Food was okay from what we had ordered. The Gigi Gogi Bowl was clearly missing some listed ingredients that have been on the bowl in the past- must have be rushed when made, which is disappointing considering the price. Can't see myself giving it more than three starts. This would be an okay spot for a quick bite.

    Side Taco with bulgogi

    So good!! This was quick service, very fairly priced, and delicious. I'm giving 4 stars because they forgot the chicken I added to my elote quesadilla as well as the miso chocolate sauce for the churro - made me sad, but was still good as is! The kimchi fried rice was definitely on the spicier side for me (it's like medium level spice) so I just switched off eating bites with Seoul sauce or kewpie mayo. I will definitely be back.

    Corn Elote Dilla w/ Chicken, Bulgogi Steak Torta, Kimchi Fried Rice
    Emily N.

    Went in here for a quick bite. Staff was really nice and it was a cute vibe inside. Our food was mid at best. The kimchi fried rice was dry, the torta had dry bread making it tough to finish, the elote corn dilla was decent though. I probably wouldn't come here again as there are better korean mexican fusion places in Chicago!

They truly go above and beyond to make sure they deliver great customer service. They'll do little things like offer you a free taco of their Birria while you wait for your food. Go to any market in Mexico and they'll treat you the exact same. Unfortunately for them their original Southside location is closed due to a fire but they'll be back hopefully soon! My son and daughter both ordered their Birria Tacos, my wife ordered their Quesabirria tacos and I ordered their Tazon Chico of their carnaza Birria of course. It also came with a side of their handmade tortillas. Everything tasted so fresh and the Birria was very delicious. So much flavor in the consome. Ordering the tazon is definitely they way to go here because you get the meat in the consome. But if you wanted meat only, you have the option of ordering their plato instead.

Despite their well-earned fame, this spot keeps the humble, hole-in-the-wall energy intact, small, unpretentious, and staffed by some genuinely warm and welcoming people. Pop in, grab a seat, and let them do the rest. My fiancé and I shared the quesabirria combo, two quesabirrias with consomé, a Mexican Coke, and a Jamaica, and honestly, everything was amazing. The Jamaica alone deserves its own shoutout: perfectly balanced, not too bitter, not too sweet, and exactly what you need to cut through the heat of the food. The tacos came out piping hot, prepped right in front of us, loaded with cheese and packed with flavor. The consomé was warming, rich, and perfectly spiced, the kind of broth that makes you want to tip the bowl. And the accompaniments (onion, cilantro, peppers, lime, and salsa) give you full control to doctor things up to your liking. For spice lovers, this setup is a dream. My one gripe, and the sole reason I'm docking a star, is the price. At around $30 for two tacos, a consomé, and drinks, it's a tough pill to swallow. As a Mexican American, there's something about that price point that pulls me slightly out of the authentic experience I was hoping for. I fully respect the craft and passion behind this food, but it's worth noting. That said? Don't let it stop you. This food is incredible, and I'll absolutely be back.

Really awesome space at a crowded downtown location. Foods were served on nice metal holders or disposable/environmentally friendly containers and utensils. The tacos were huge, and I love that they focus on the variety of vegetables on the taco, which is often overlooked at other places. Veggies also make the taco look beautiful. I particularly enjoyed the tikka paneer, the paneer was soft for paneer but firmer than tofu, a really great texture. And the flavor wasn't overpowering. The tikka sauce was light, which I am totally fine with. The chicken quesadilla was also made well and of good value, the kids all really liked it. The salmon was good too but didn't really stand out as much, but appreciate the variety veggies on top! The mexi-Cali shrimp bowl was not bad either, but also didn't stand out much. The shrimp was good but I prefer it cooked even lighter if possible. Flavor was good tho. The rice was long grain, which I prefer, but they do give quite a lot, I ended up having quite a lot leftover. I wish the had a bit more cilantro or other herby mix to increase the depth of flavor, but overall still pretty good. Queso was also really good, thick and creamy, not too salty, but sadly the kids didn't like it as much. Husband also liked the gochujang pork a lot, said it was actually really really good. Overall, we really enjoyed everything we had there. Love that they also had paper towels everywhere. My preferred method of keeping clean haha. Will definitely come back.
